A Farmer E9iecccG.

Good morning, Mr.. Moore. Can you
tell nae where I can buy 4 thoroughbred
Durham bull?" was the way q bunco man
approached William Y. Moore, well.to do
farmer, residing near Cherry Hill, on one of
the principal streets of Eikton, Nd, on
Thursday morning last, during the fair. Af-
ter short conversation about Durham and
othes thoroughbred stock, bunoo man No 2
appeared He wanted to buy farm, with
which Mr.. Moore, who is somewhat ad-
yaacad in years, probably upwards of sew

conversation Mr.. Moore and one Of the men
got in Mr.. Moore'e carriage and went to his
farm, which, upon inspection, did not suit
The would be purchaser. The twain return
Ell TO tho fair in the afternoon. Mr.. Moore's
new found friends found him on the fair
grounds Friday morning, and after enticing
him into their den showed him package OF
what they cslled california tea," and in
duced him to buy it, making him believe it
was the best tea he ever saw. The elder
bunco man, who represented himself as the
uncle OF the younger one, said the others
father had made fortune selling The tea,
ard they wished Mr.. Moore to take the
agency Tor the sale of it in thai county, and
<nade him believe there was millions in it.
Just then the younger man called the
others attention to the fact that Mr. Moore
had drawn prize of five dollars with
the Tea he had purchased, which was
tendered to bin, but before be had time 10
put it in his pocket, the fellow said he had
made mistake and that Mr.. Moore was
entitled TO ten dollars, which they gave
hiC. After further conversation Mr.. Moore
was induced to take the agency for the sale
of the tea, and as preliminary to tho clos.
ing of the contract, he was required to show
81 500 asan evidence of his ability to paw
for the tea which might be consigned to
him. Thereupon ME. Moore and the nephew
went to the Elkton National Bank for the
purpose of drawing the required amount.
The officers of the bank cautioned him
against taking the money to the fair grounds,
ut he failed to heed their advice and went

Tim by telling him that he would tell the
fellows father about the matter. ard he
would refund the money. Mr. Moore went
to get his dinner, when be suddenly seemed

unable to give any points by which the ras-
Gals could lie identified. ard nothing has

with which the aEcieDts Here acquainted.
1 red cr purple variety is also found, but
it is rather rare. The black is the best
known, and is generally considered 10 have
the most delicate ilavor.
The geographical distribution CT the tIufle
is vide lt extends over most OF Europe,

and the East Indies. In England il is found

ties, and probably could be procured all over

Since its growth is entirely subter:aneous,
without any shoots or other signs Of its p!e-
sence above ground, the hunters resort TO q
peculiar rethod TO obtain it. Some animals,

q delicate sense Of smell, have also strcng
